Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies
- The effect of the development on the openness of the Green Belt
- Whether the development would provide suitable carbon off-setting measures to mitigate the effects of climate change
- Whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, would be clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal
What decided it
The substantial size of the proposed basements means the dwellings would be materially larger than the existing building to be replaced, making them inappropriate development in the Green Belt that cannot be justified by the circumstances presented.
Framework references: 154
